The Clippers need salary, if they start a rebuilt and Noah could help developing young players. Noah, can be a starter in a bad team.
And he's only on a two year contract after is saeson, so the Clippers can use him one year and trade his expiring contract for more assets the year after.

I think the Knicks view Hernangomez as THEIR future big man. Lee should be dealt, but the bigs going out should be O'Quinn and Kanter if possible. I think Hernangomez is a little overrated at this point. He's got talent, but I don't think he'll be too much more than a solid rotational big. He's a role player they can use to build, but they definitely shouldn't consider him a sticking point to a deal that would improve them moving forward.

dont think spurs would offer anderson and the pick, they value their picks highly and pop loves andersen. even with kawhi back i don't think tyreke puts them in the finals, so what's the point
and cavs can't trade both picks.

I'm confused. Noah is a leader, so why isolate him to make value worth less. Hornicek, u can't play fast with 2 bigs. Spurs play at their pace and can beat anybody. Stop trying to make former players into head coaches. I think Knicks need to New gm and president. Defense wins championship. Bring back van gundy.

Off season
Noah Thomas top 10 pick to Dallas for Dallas 2nd. Cuban would be intrigued. Beasley resign mid level after signing a superstar. O'Quinn opts in and signs extension. Give ny 25 mil in cap space

You add LeBron 4yr 140mil to this frontcourt and you can talk about best defensive team in nba.

You're not getting 3 stars for Porzingas. He has a ton of value, but not nearly enough for Utah to give up that much and the Nuggets aren't giving up Millsapp for capspace alone.

Also, while you could consider Noah a leader in Chicago (more of a Draymond Green style push the envelope type leader), he's now just an opinionated malcontent that probably doesn't have the talent to play in the NBA any more, who makes to much money and actively tried to fight his coach. The guy is almost unmovable, If the Knicks aren't willing to part with this years first and I'm not even sure that the first alone would be enough to move him.

Probably one of the worst trades I have ever seen! Jazz do not want Kanter back! No way we are giving up Mitchell and Gobert! Oh and sorry to break your heart but Lebron is not going to sign with the Knicks. Ownership/ Management is just as bad as it is right now with the cavs.

Pretty simple, I don't expect the Spurs to do much but add another big and a depth wing. Spurs have reportedly had interest in Willie for a while, and Tony Allen is a Spurs type move. Knicks get the wing they were looking for, and clear a bit of the logjam in the middle.

@ tonchcorkins
well,1+1= >2
that's synergie. You can't see this as two seperated deals
The spurs can take a bad contract if they start to rebuilt. And they get two prospects and an extra pick for trading a star.

I don't think this spurs team can beat Goldenstate the next few years. They mostly fail to land big free agents. And there's a rumor K Leonard is unhappy.
This is a good deal for them, if this rumor is true.

-> Spurs complete rebuild around Murray, Jackson, Bender, Suns picks and own picks while remaining relevant due to their veterans Aldridge, Gasol, Parker, Anderson, Mills...
-> Coach Pop will get all the talent out of Murray, Jackson, Bender and their 3x 1st round picks 2018 like he did before with Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, Leonard.... future looks bright
Murray/Parker/Mills/White
Jackson/Ginobili/Forbes
Gay/Anderson/Jackson
Aldridge/Bender/Bertans
Gasol/Chandler/Lauvergne
